Have stayed at this property a few times and it never disappoints!

The cottage was the right size but the cleanliness was sub par. Upon entry it was immediately noted that no time or effort had been put into the cleaning. For reference: The kitchen stove was found not cleaned; there was food debris in cupboards/drawers; filthy blinds, with dirty dusty layers; burnt out lightbulbs; dirty light fixtures with cobwebs, dust and bugs in/on light fixtures in all rooms; the worst being urine around base of toilets and fecal matter sprayed under side of toilet seat in upstairs bathroom; None of the mirrors were clean. Worst being in bathrooms with sink spray matter still left on them; Exhaust vents in bathrooms covered in thick dust; Coffee maker wasn't washed out; The cooking pots still had food matter on/in them (unwashed); and utensils, dishes still greasy from previous use but left in cupboards. We can describe more but let's just say that we spent the first hour of our stay with four people cleaning was unacceptable. Especially because we know that we paid a large "cleaning" fee which we presume was also paid by the previous renter but we arrived to find it insufficiently cleaned. There was no excuse for it to be found in such an unclean state. We have photos to prove what we found!

It as a great place and had lots of room for us and had everything we needed! Great location for a home base as we travelled the island. Very quiet and private!

Loved our time. The place is cozy and very handy for a big or small family. Kids loved the pool and hut tub. Everything is within a short drive. One of our new favourite places to visit is ‘Goats on roof’

The owner was wonderful and communicative. The Kitchen was beautifully appointed for cooking. The primary bedroom with ensuite was amazing and allowed for privacy and rest. The proximity to walking trails and beaches was beautiful, and it was a short drive to Parksville, Qualicum, and Wood Grove, making this centrally located cabin a delight. The only request would be to update the rusty BBQ grill, which we could not use.

The cabin was way bigger than the pictures show. It was perfect! There was everything we needed. We will come back as soon as we can. The pool and restaurant was awesome. Go for tacos. I went to a scrapbooking class as well. So much fun. Go to the Back Goose and walk on the beach. This is one of the nicest places we have stayed. Thank you.

Level of clean was poor - had to rewash frying pan before use, cupboards/drawers weren’t wiped clean, personal debris and garbage around upstairs bed, bathroom and main room fans coated in dust.
Lack of basics - cooking oil, salt & pepper, food wrap, facial tissues
Microwave broken - host made aware, responded, no resolution during stay; impacted meals/reheating
Amenities - hot tub luke warm, weak jets; could use clear instructions of walking path to the water
Overall, enough room for 5 adults; needs a refresh and better attention to cleaning and making the unit more renter-friendly.

I was in Parksville for the weekend attending a retreat, there were 5 of us and because we were driving in from the interior we wanted a space large enough to fit all of us. It was a quick 5 minute drive to our event, and very clean, bright and comfortable. Highly recommend.

We enjoyed our visit at this cabin, it was a quiet location. Cabin is close to downtown Parksville, with a short drive. The beach is a short drive as well or 15-20 min walk to the beach. No streaming capability for a group to watch things together but there was reliable Wifi. This cabin has two large decks, which would be nice in summer. Fireplace was very cozy for a fall evening.

This lovely house had all the room needed for our family of five. The teens had the space upstairs with the bathroom to themselves. Mom and dad and younger daughter on the main floor. We were there for a wedding. We hosted my parents and my sisters family for lunch the first day and there was plenty of room and supplies and appliances to host a nice lunch. It has a full oven fridge dishwasher. In nicer weather I imagine spending time on either of those two roomy decks.
The owner was very responsive to our communications. The check in process was very easy. He was very accommodating to any request that we may have had. And any of those would have been very minor.
Our kids really enjoyed the pool and being indoors in late September was a bonus.
We especially like the location for its proximity to the city of parksville,but not so close that we can’t enjoy the peace and quiet of the community along resort drive.
We would definitely stay at this complex again and with this owner.

The home was everything it said it was. Close to everything we wanted to do , clean, relaxing, beautiful neighborhood. The host was easy to contact . We would absolutely stay here again!

This is our second time staying here and we’ve loved both experiences. It’s a great spot for families with plenty of room. Great location, close to the beach, playgrounds, downtown, mini golf, and grocery stores.
Steve was really helpful in letting us check in early as we had a 5:15am ferry with small children, we really appreciated that!
Would highly recommend staying here!

sloppy and untidy general impression without personal touch.

Our stay was nice, cozy beds, lots of space and private yards.
The main fridge wasn’t working so it was a challenge keeping our food fresh in a tiny bar fridge.
We were a little surprised to see mostly empty hand soap bottles in the bathrooms that didn’t pump properly and a used bar soap in the shower.
The place could use some basic maintenance, as there was a broken fence latch, broken fridge, lamp switches missing etc..
The pool was unclean (bandages stuck to the bottom) and dirty shower room.
We had a nice vacation overall but we’re a little disappointed with this unit when comparing it to others we’ve stayed at in the area.
With a little maintenance and more attention to detail this cabin would be great!

First time on VRBO, loved it - close to town but still in a quiet area, and a rare "in my budget" find!
A couple notes re disabilities, may not be suitable for limited mobility. Nice open main floor but stairs to front door, plus one of our group has joint problems so the downstairs shower/tub, while lovely, was too high to step over/lift out. Fortunately they can navigate stairs - a bit steep but they could use the upstairs shower. And that is also great! Sizeable, built in seat, small ledge - perfect for them.
Second, minor issue with easy fix, found the lighting quite dim in the evening. We all use electronic devices to read, but if you bring a book etc, I suggest a personal reading light for evening.
With that out of the way, we loved it! Backs onto the main road, but so well soundproofed/landscaped it was only audible with the deck door open! Open, airy, bright in the days, beds wonderfully comfortable! I stayed upstairs and the other two stayed in rear back bedroom, all slept great. No AC but ample fans throughout, outside temps ran between 18 to 23 - I needed an extra fan upstairs but I run hot so not unexpected, & always have a small USB clamp fan. Very good selection of dishes & cookware, good stove, toaster, full size fridge, GREAT microwave!! Suggest baggies/Tupperware for leftover storage especially if cooking staining foods.
Owner was quick to respond, polite, and accommodating of a last minute change. Would definitely stay again! Thanks!

Great place. It is just a bit noisy on the back deck as it backs onto the highway. Some updates would help (older fridge, sagging and uncomfortable living room chairs). But overall, I would stay again. Very helpful host.

Fantastic chalet that provides all the necessary equipment needed for a fun stay.
The pool and hot tub were lovely and the mini golf made extra fun.
The area was central to a lot of what we wanted to do.
I highly recommend this facility and will definitely be looking to go back.

We just needed out of the house and out to the beach! This was a great long weekend get away for our family. It rained a but so when it rained, the kids loved to pool. When it was not raining, they loved the beach.
4.0
We had a comfortable stay in this nice location. We brought bikes, so getting around was easy. The pool was a bit of a stroll away, but it was so quiet, we could not complain. My only notes for this conveniently located cabin are: it could use a deep clean (many dust bunnies), the knives were all dull, and the waterproof mattress pads on all the beds were a bit uncomfortable, especially on warmer nights. Otherwise, we had a lovely stay.

Beach cabin is big in quiet resort. A few provisions would have been nice - some coffee or tea, oil etc. Some notes on the layout and area would have been handy - we couldn’t find close access to the beach.
There is no iron. The property was good for price.

Absolutely loved everything about our stay. The house is perfect for a family. We had to change the dates of our booking twice and Steve was very understanding and accommodating. He was quick to answer all our questions. The house itself is beautiful and in a great location within the resort. It was stocked with everything you could possibly need. Beds were very comfortable! We would definitely stay here again!

The unit was clean, comfortable, and very welcoming. The host was great to talk with. I would definitely come back.
The only improvement I would suggest is the pillows; they need an upgrade. Other than that, absolutely delightful, thanks for having us.

Once again it was a great place to stay. Only thing I say every time I stay here is it would be better if the loft bedroom was closed in and not open for privacy. Other than that you can’t go wrong!
5.0
Everything you need is there. The only downside is the pillows need an upgrade and better towels. A Smart TV would have been great, we just wanted to relax and watch a movie. Easy check in, great kitchen with everything you need.
